Looking Like Openly Supporting Hillary Could Get Dangerous.
Based on the incendiary rhetoric [sic] from Trump and the mental disposition of his supporters openly supporting Hillary will make you a target for intimidation and hatred. And I wonder if you could depend on law enforcement because they could be indifferent.
We are entering unexplored territory with this election. Emotions will be running so hight by election day anything is possible. Trump, his supporters and the right wing hate machine show signs of escalating to new level. If the trends show that they are on the road to losing late in this election cycle they may really go nuts.
Based on some posts on this signs will Democrats, Hillary supporters et al need helmet and flak jackets. I may be over reacting but I hope I am not. I just am concerned about the atmosphere and reports coming out of Trump rallies.
The post from the couple who were targeted by someone is really most disturbing. The fact that their dog was poisoned and their car was destroyed is really very concerning. The fact that the post commented that there was no active investigation by police made me wonder. Two serious crimes were committed and odds are it was the same person and was political.
With Trump talking about 2nd amendment solutions and claiming rigged elections puts a target on Democratic voters. Plus calling on supporters to show up at the polls to observe is out of bounds and inviting trouble.

3. I think it would depend
on what part of the country you live in.

4. You Are Most Likely Correct. But I Would Not Bet On It.
Trump lovers are nuts everywhere.

6. I'll be damned---
if I will let some cowardly knuckle-dragging mouth breather intimidate me. I live in a VERY red area of my state and my county routinely votes 75% Republican. I have about a dozen liberal/Democratic bumper stickers on my car and a large hand-lettered anti-Trump sign in my rear window. I wear anti-Tea Party shirts when I shop and wore one to the last Tea Party rally on the Courthouse Square.
When I get stared at I stare back and usually manage to blow a kiss when they flip me off. That drives them nuts!
When all else fails, I smile and tell them to kiss my ass.
But, that's just me.

8. Hell, next thing we know some lunatic online is going to start ranting
about he can't tolerate or live with Hillary supporters, wants the Democratic Party labeled as a terrorist organization, and to see members of liberal groups arrested and detained without due process.

9. They Are Already Saying That And Worse.
The RW has been over the top for a very long time now.
Strange ... I've heard of violence committed against Trump supporters at several Trump rallies, but none at all at The SHREW's rallies. Have the MSM been suppressing news of all those violent Trumpsters? Or do they only live in TMN's head?
There's some trending story on FB about a couple with a Hell-beast bumpersticker who claim their dog was shot and the car (Or something) vandalized. Democrats being what they are, it wouldn't surprise me if their dog was shot for killing the neighbor's chickens and they vandalized whatever was damaged just to get in the news, frickin' Progs do that kind of shit all the damn' time.
NuclearDem's post went right over Bob's head, didn't it? :lmao: Moron.
OTOH, organized and serious violence - more like what TMN professes to fear - to date has been one-sided, entirely AFAIK.
NuclearDem's post went right over Bob's head, didn't it? :lmao: Moron.
Between the Tea Party violence and the Trumpster violence, old bob had better tread lightly.
